Just Like Oprah

Here are a few of my favorite things:
  • Man vs Food - I think I mentioned somewhere before that this is the most subversive, politically incorrect and down right dangerous show on TV right now. Fat people eating anything and everything in sight. Sometimes it disturbs even me, and I'll eat anything that doesn't move faster than I do.
  • Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives - yes! another show about gorging yourself. Not as decadent as MvF but delicious all the same. I'm trying to get these shows out of my system before the new health plans kick in and they outlaw obesity. I like Guy Fieri even though it aggravates me to try to pronounce his last name.
  • Property Virgins - That Sandra Rinomato knows her real estate, she sales with flare, verve and a Canadian accent.
  • Google Maps - I really love the feature that let's you go down to street level (not sure what that feature is called). It's handy for planning my motorcycle rides, even figuring out the scenic spots to stop and take photos. Now if it would just help me figure out a way to pay for those trips.
A few of my not so favorite things:
  • Carrie Prejean - I'm one gullible son of a bitch but even I can see a huckster of her magnitude coming. She makes the terms plastic and fake inadequate, and I'm not talking about the breast implants. Her indignant act in the Larry King interview isn't very convincing.
  • Larry King - his obnoxious, boorish behavior is way too authentic.
